Meta’s new Muse AI is more than a chatbot – it’s an agent. Capable of managing your emails, scheduling appointments, making purchases, and managing your finances, this agent’s goal is to make your life better. More than that, Meta’s philosophy is to provide everyone with superintelligence to help each person achieve their individual goals.

In this episode, Kelly explains Meta’s new AI rollout of the agentic app and the forthcoming Muse Charm. Considering the broad and spiritual concerns surrounding the merging of our lives with machines, Kelly unpacks how Meta’s worldview and promises of personal superintelligence are opposed to Scripture and to what it means to be human. She offers parents practical ways to disciple kids through conversations surrounding Muse, and its “delightful” new charm.
